We have tonight


Tonight you're mine
I'll watch the way your lips move
Curled up; the corners dancing up and down
With all of your frenetic energy
You're still the best thing I ever found.

I'll remember the way we were
Touches softly, slowly here and there
The longing feeling lingers in our air
Bittersweet nostalgia sweeps underneath the door
And I can't help feeling love's not fair.

This won't last long
Just as quickly as this happened, it will soon be gone
the bright sun will pop up tomorrow
like an obnoxious uninvited stranger
stay here while the sun is sinking low

Tonight you're here 
I'll kiss you with utter abandon
I'll  have the hardest time with goodbye
Our sweet turned sour and
I'll never fully understand why.

And if I don't get another chance
I'll relish the forgiven look in your eyes
The surreal peace that breathes and hush
For a moment I wish the stars would shine forever
And we would always be us.
